Chapter 1 Description & Specifications
1.1 General Description
The Industrial Climate Engineering (ICE) CEA and CGA are a series of vertical wall-mounted air
conditioning systems that provide heating, cooling, and ventilation for electronic equipment shelters,
process control centers, and other applications with high internal heat gains. The series includes multiple
sizes and nominal cooling capacities from 12,000 to 60,000 BTUH. Resistance heating elements are
available in various wattages.
• CEA: Standard Efficiency Models
Our most popular model. ICE CEA air conditioners are available in cooling capacities of 1, 1.5, 2,
2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5 and 6 tons (12,000 BTUH to 72,000 BTUH).
• CGA: High Efficiency Models
Our most efficient wall mount air conditioners. Electronically commutated indoor fan motors combined
with highly efficient scroll compressors result in increased energy efficiency.
The CEA/CGA Product Data Sheets have detailed information on the capacities and efficiencies for
each model.
See Appendix A for instructions on field installation of electric heat.
ICE CEA & CGA air conditioners feature an exclusive electronic control board. The control board
consolidates several of the electrical components and improves the air conditioner’s reliability. The
control board replaces the blower relay, the lockout relay, the compressor time delay and the timed
low pressure bypass. In addition, the control board has LED’s to indicate operating status and fault
conditions to assist the service technician. A complete description of functions of the control board is
in Section 1.6.
All ICE models are designed for easy installation and service. Major components are accessible for
service beneath external panels.
All units have internal disconnects (optional on 380V and 575V). Follow local codes for external
disconnect requirements.
These units have a 0-15% manual outside air damper as standard equipment. All models are available
with an optional factory installed economizer for 100% free cooling with outside air.
Note: Not all options are available with all configurations. Contact your ICE sales representative for configuration details and
feature compatibility.
IMPORTANT
The electrical wire and breaker or fuses must be sized for simultaneous operation
of the electric heater and the air conditioner. Refer to the data sticker on the unit or
the appropriate Air Conditioner Product Data Sheet for the sizing information.
Dehumidification is achieved by operating mechanical cooling in conjunction with electric reheat. The
strip heat is sized approximately to the sensible capacity of the total tonnage of the machine (i.e., on a
24,000 BTU unit the strip heat is sized at approximately 20,000 BTU). Because the strip heat is sized
to the approximate sensible cooling capacity, only selected models are available.
Operation:
When the humidity rises above the set point on the humidity controller both mechanical cooling and
electric reheat operate to temper the air and lower the humidity. If the temperature in the controlled
environment rises above the set point of the thermostat and the unit is operating in the dehumidification
mode, the call for cooling will override the call for dehumidification and the strip heat is disengaged
until the thermostat is satisfied. This assures the environment temperature is maintained as first priority
and humidity control is second.
In applications where a shelter has redundant air conditioning units and is controlled by a lead lag
controller (CommStat 4, CommStat 3 HVAC Controller), most times the dehumidification option is
9 ICE CEA/CGA1012–1060 Wall Mount AC I&O Manual
05/2021 Rev.2
only necessary on one of the two units. It is possible for one unit to be operating in the cooling mode
while the unit with dehumidification is operating at the same time. If the cooling unit does not maintain
the shelter temperature set point, the unit with dehumidification will go into the cooling mode. It does
not matter whether the unit with dehumidification is the lead or lag unit.
Three Phase Voltage Monitor
Continuously measures the voltage of each of the three phases. The monitor separately senses low
and high voltage, voltage unbalance including phase loss and phase reversal. An LED indicator glows
when all voltages are acceptable. Automatically resets when voltages and phases are within operating
tolerances. Not required on 1ø units.
Dirty Filter Indicator (Not Available on the CEA1012)
A diaphragm type of indicator measures the air pressure on either side of the filter and when the pressure
drops below the set point, a red LED is illuminated. The set point is adjustable.
Protective Coil Coatings
Either the condenser or evaporator coil can be coated, however, coating of the evaporator coil is not
common. For harsh conditions, e.g., power plants, paper mills or sites were the unit will be exposed to
salt water, the condenser coil should be coated. Note: Cooling capacity may be reduced by up to 5%
on units with coated coils.
Thermal Expansion Valve
Available on all ComPac® air conditioners. Improves performance in hot ambient temperatures.
High Filtration (Not Available on the CEA1012)
Selected units are built with larger blowers/motors for use with higher efficiency filters with MERV
ratings of 11, 13 and 14 when tested to ASHRAE 52.2. Units with economizers have a pre-filter on the
outside air.
Lockable Disconnect Access Cover Plate
The access plate to the service disconnect switch can be equipped with a lockable cover.
Cold Climate Kit (CEA1024-1060 and CGA1030-1060 units)
Controls and components which allow the units to operate in extremely cold temperatures. The kit
includes a suction line accumulator, thermal expansion valve (TXV), crankcase heater, hard start kit,
and an outdoor thermostat and fan cycle switch. The fan cycle control is standard on all ComPac air
conditioners and operates based upon the liquid line pressure. The outside thermostat opens whenever
the outside temperature is below 50°F (10°C) and closes when the outside temperature is 50°F (10°C)
or higher. Whenever the temperature is below 50°F (10°C), the fan cycle switch is in the circuit; when
temperatures are 50°F (10°C) or higher, the fan cycle switch is not in the circuit. The outdoor thermostat
is used with a TXV to prevent excessive cycling or “hunting” of the TXV.
2. Gently push the dip switch UP to select the desired set point temperature. The factory setting is
for dip switches number 1, 2, & 3 to be in the Down position and #4 to be in the Up position.
With dip switch #4 in the Up position, the economizer damper will begin to open when the
ambient temperature is 63°F/17.2°C.
3. Only one switch should be in the Up position.
Note: having all four switches in the down position is the same setting as having the #1 switch
in the Up position.
DANGER
Sever hazard. The economizer contains moving parts capable of causing
serious injury or death. Disconnect power before removing the covering panel.
Economizer changeover control – Dry Bulb Sensor
The dry bulb sensor only responds to the dry bulb temperature of the outside air and ignores the humidity.
The sensor has eight set points. The factory setting is 58°F (14.5°C). These set points can be changed
by moving the dip switches on the top of the dry bulb sensor. See Fig. 2.
ICE CEA/CGA1012–1060 Wall Mount AC I&O Manual 14
05/2021 Rev.2
Figure 2. Dry Bulb Sensor
Once either the enthalpy or dry bulb sensor has determined that the outside air is suitable for cooling,
the damper will open. The mixed air sensor will limit the air temperature delivered to the space by
modulating the damper blade to mix warm indoor air with cooler outdoor air to provide a constant
50°F to 56°F (10°C to 13.5°C)

WARNING
Failure to observe the instructions contained in this document may result in personal
injury and/or property damage and may void the warranty. Read this manual before
installing, replacing or using this product.
CEA and CGA models are equipped with ICE’s proprietary Printed Circuit Board (PCB), which sets
the standard for the industry in flexibility, reliability and performance. This UL certified component is
engineered to optimize Heating, Cooling and Dehumidification operation while communicating valuable
information to the end user. Special features include 2-Stage operation with varying speed control
to optimize latent and sensible capacity, built in remote communication (MODBUS) for monitoring
and/or control, optimized head pressure control and the ability to function autonomously without the
need for an off the shelf thermostat. The ICE PCB comes equipped with LEDs to monitor lockouts for
independent circuits, which drastically reduces troubleshooting time and system downtime. Lockout
contacts are also provided along with the alarms being transferred via MODBUS.
This chapter provides the necessary information for installing and operating the ICE PCB.

Communication
The ICE PCB comes equipped with MODBUS communication standard. There are 2 adjacent MODBUS
communication ports connected in parallel. That is, both ports transmit the same information. The dif-
ference between the ports is the physical connection. One port is for RS-485 (3 wire shielded cable is
recommended) and the other port is RJ-11. The board allows you to set the Baud Rate at 9600 bits per
second or 19200 bits per second. The board also allows 15 different MODBUS addresses based on the
position of the “NET ADDRESS” DIP switches. The Net Addresses are written in Binary (see table
below) with switch 4 being the least significant bit. THE NUMBERS ON THE DIP SWITCHES
DO NOT CORRELATE TO MODBUS ADDRESSES. The figure below shows the positions of the
various components necessary to set up communication on the on the PCB.

3.0– Heating
3.1– Electric Heat
When there is a request for “Heating (W2-Input High)” via MODBUS, Digital Input or On-board
Thermostat, the HVAC unit will run the Indoor Motor for 10 seconds prior to energizing the Heater
Output. Once the Heater output is energized, the Heater comes on at full capacity (no staging). The
Heater will remain on until the Heating setpoint is satisfied and the request is dropped. Once the heat-
ing setpoint is satisfied, the Indoor Fan will continue to run for 90 seconds while all other associated
outputs are de-energized. Indoor Fan will default at 80% of Y2 speed.
4.0– Dehumidification
4.1– Independent Reheat Output
A request for “Dehumidification (Hum – Input High)” via MODBUS or Digital input will result in
the control board energizing the Compressor 1 (CC1), Compressor 2 (CC2) and the Reheat (RH)
relay outputs on the board. It also produces a continuous control signal for the Indoor Fan Motor that
is proportional to the 80% (default) of the Y2 speed. The Outdoor Fan Motor is request dependent
(based on “FCC IN” Input) and outputs a signal proportional to board or MODBUS setting when the
“FCC IN” input is High. The board continues to produce these outputs until the Dehumidification
request is dropped. Once this request is dropped, the Indoor Fan Motor continues to run for 90 seconds.
25 ICE CEA/CGA1012–1060 Wall Mount AC I&O Manual
05/2021 Rev.2
5.0 – Refrigeration Protection
5.1– High Pressure Lockout
This condition describes the abnormal rise in Head Pressure pass the system acceptable limit of 660
PSI (+/-20PSI). The fault will only be active when the High-Pressure Switch (Normally Closed)
opens during a request for Cooling. The first time this fault condition occurs, the system cuts the
compressor off WITHOUT locking out. Once the pressure normalizes (drops below 450 PSI), the
system will resume operation if the cooling call still exist. If this fault occurs a second time on the
same Cooling request, the system locks out. Lockouts can be monitored using the Status 1 and Status
2 LEDs. These LEDs correspond to a particular circuit and has a flash sequence associated to the
various faults. The faults can also be monitored via MODBUS by reading the respective value based
on the MODBUS map that is provided. After this lockout condition is reached, the cooling call must
be cycled (on/off of respective cooling request) or the system must be power cycled to clear the fault.
For a 2-compressor system, each lockout is isolated to the respective circuit and will not interfere
with the operation of the other circuit providing that the circuits operate independently. The system
will continue to lockout until the problem is rectified.
5.2– Low Pressure Lockout
This condition describes the abnormal fall in Suction Pressure below 40PSIG (+/- 5PSIG). This fault
will only be active when the Low-Pressure Switch (Normally Closed) opens up during a request for
Cooling. The Low-Pressure Switch is bypassed on the initial call for cooling for 3 minutes to allow
low ambient start-up of the system. Once these 3 minutes have elapsed, if the switch is still open,
the system cuts the compressor off. Once the pressure normalizes, the system will restart the cooling
operation. In the event that the fault occurs a second time on the same call for cooling, the system
locks out. To clear the fault, the Cooling request must be cycled or the system must be power cycled.
Status LEDs with associated flash codes or designated MODBUS values can be monitored to verify
this fault. The system will continue to lockout unit the problem is rectified.
5.3– Low Voltage
In the event that the board is experiencing low voltage (less than 20 Volts), both Status 1 and Status 2
LEDs flashes continuously (see LED Status Indicators). The board will not energize any outputs until
this problem is rectified. This fault can be monitored at the board level via LEDs or via MODBUS.
5.4– Anti-Short Cycle
This is a built-in protection mechanism that increases the reliability of the compressor by protecting
it from excessive short cycling. When the compressor goes off, due to any fault, emergency or if the
cooling setpoint is satisfied, a built-in 3-minute timer locks the compressor for that respective circuit
out. This can be monitored via MODBUS by referencing the appropriate register. However, it can
only be monitored at the board level by waiting for the 3 minutes to elapse.
6.0 – Additional Features
5.1 – MODBUS Communication
To control the board via MODBUS, the board ID must be non-zero. “Zero” a MODBUS ID represents
local control which allows the board to be controlled at the board level by Digital thermostatic inputs.
If the MODBUS ID is non-zero, the board ignores all inputs from the board and inputs used are based
on the MODBUS registers associated to the various Digital Inputs and Registers. Read Only registers
and Coils can still be monitored but all read/write values MUST be configured at the MODBUS
register/coil level and NOT at the board level.
The sequence of operation is the same as described above for the various operation, but Indoor
Motor speeds for various operation, Outdoor Motor Speed, Heating Setpoint and Cooling Setpoint (if
applicable) has to be configured via MODBUS. See MODBUS register tables at the end of this section.

5.2 – Modulating Head Pressure Control
A 10K Nominal NTC Thermistor is connected to the “P1” and “P2” inputs for circuit 1 and circuit 2
respectively. When this sensor is connected, the “FCC IN” is ignored and the thermistor value is used
as the process variable when controlling the head pressure. The controller modulates the Outdoor Fan
Motor to maintain a 90ºF temperature setpoint. The controller will always use the greater value of P1
and P2 input as the reference point. In the event that the Thermistor is disconnected, the controller
reverts to the “FCC IN” input to control the Head Pressure of the system.
5.3– Freeze Stat
A 10K Nominal NTC Thermistor is connected to the “FS1” input on the PCB. If the Thermistor is
not connected, freeze protection will not be provided. If the Thermistor is connected, the control will
provide the freeze protection by turning the compressor Off at a temperature of 35ºF (+/- 2ºF) on the
Indoor Coil. The compressor will remain Off until the temperature measured is greater than 45ºF and
the anti-short cycle time has elapsed.
5.4– Onboard Thermostat
The Onboard Thermostat requires a 10K NTC thermistor to be connected to the “FS2” input. It also
requires that the MODBUS functionality is enabled via MODBUS. The Heating Setpoint, Cooling
Setpoint and Calibration of the sensor has to be configured via MODBUS. Once configuration is
complete, the unit has the capability to function autonomously to maintain the space temperature.

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death, and/or
property damage.
Turn off electrical power at fuse box or service panel BEFORE making any electrical
connections and ensure a proper ground connection is made before connecting line
voltage.
Important
All electrical work must meet the requirements of local codes and ordinances. Work should be
done only by qualified persons.
ICE units may incorporate an internal crankcase heater for compressor protection. The crankcase
heater must be energized for at least 24 hours prior to starting the compressor.
Scroll compressors, like several other types of compressors, will only compress in one rotational direction.
The direction of rotation is not an issue with single-phase compressors since they will always start and
run in the proper direction. However, three phase compressors will rotate in either direction depending
upon phasing of power. Since there is a 50-50 chance of connecting power in such a way as to cause
rotation in the reverse direction, it is imperative to confirm that the compressor is rotating in the proper
direction at the initial field start-up of the system. Verification of proper rotation is made by observing
ICE CEA/CGA1012–1060 Wall Mount AC I&O Manual 36
05/2021 Rev.2
that the suction pressure drops and the discharge pressure rises when the compressor is energized. An
alternate method of verification for self contained system with small critical refrigerant charges, where
the installation of gauges may be objectionable, can be made by monitoring the temperature of the
refrigerant lines at the compressor. The temperature should rise on the discharge line while the suction
line temperature decreases. Reverse rotation also results in a substantially reduced current draw when
compared to tabulated values.
There is no negative impact on durability caused by operating three phase compressors in the reversed
direction for a short duration of time, usually defined as less than one hour. However, after several
minutes of operation the compressor's internal protector will trip. The compressor will then cycle on
the protector until the phasing is corrected. Reverse operation for longer than one hour may have a
negative impact on the bearings.
To change the rotation, turn off power to the unit and reverse L1 & L2 at the disconnect in the air
conditioner.
High Voltage Wiring - (Single Units)
The power supply should have the proper voltage, phase, and ampacity for the selected model.
1. Refer to the electrical data on the data sticker on the unit for field wiring requirements of the unit.
Size the incoming power supply lines and the fuse(s) or HACR breaker(s) according to requirements
described in the National Electric Code. Run the power conductors through the knockouts on the
side or back of the unit. Use appropriate conduit and strain reliefs.
CAUTION
Note: Power supply service must be within allowable range (+10% - 5%) of rated
voltage stamped on the unit rating plate. To operate nominal 230/208V unit at 208V,
change the transformer line tap from 240V to 208V following the instruction on
wiring label in unit.
2. Connect the wires to the input side of the internal breaker or terminal block (L1 & L2 for single-
phase units; L1, L2, & L3 for three-phase models).
3. Install the ground wire on the ground lug.
4. For units designed for operation on 208/230V, 60Hz power supply, the transformer is factory wired
for a 230V power supply. For a 208V power supply, remove the orange lead from the transformer
and connect the red lead. Insulate the orange lead.
5. 460V units have a step down transformer for 230V motors.
CAUTION
The external breaker(s) that provide power to the air conditioner must be sized per
the maximum Fuse Size (MFS) shown on the Unit's data label.

Duct Work
General Information
Note: The following instructions are for general guidance only. Due to the wide variety of installation
possibilities, specific instructions will not be given. When in doubt, follow standard and accepted installation
practices, or contact Airxcel Commercial Group for additional assistance.
Wall Openings
Measure the dimensions of the supply and return ports on the unit.
Cut the openings in the exterior wall for the supply and return. IMPORTANT: All units with electric heat
must have 1" (25.4 mm) clearance on all four sides of the supply outlet duct flange on the unit. The 1"
(25.4 mm) clearance must extend on all sides of the supply duct for the first 3 feet (1 meter) from the unit.
IMPORTANT: ICE requires a minimum of 1" (25.4 mm) from the surface of any supply ducts to combustible
material for the first 3 feet (1 meter) of the duct.
Ducting
Extensions should be cut flush with the inside wall for applications without duct work.
Applications using duct work should be designed and installed in accordance with all applicable safety codes and
standards. ICE strongly recommends referring to the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association
Standards 90A and 90B before designing and installing duct work. The duct system must be engineered to
insure sufficient air flow through the unit to prevent over-heating of the heater element. This includes proper
supply duct sizing, sufficient quantity of supply registers, adequate return and filter area. Ductwork must be
of correct material and must be properly insulated. Duct work must be constructed of galvanized steel with
a minimum thickness of .019 inches for the first 3 feet (1 meter). Ductwork must be firmly attached, secured
and sealed to prevent air leakage. Do not use duct liner on inside of supply duct within 4 feet (122 cm) of the
unit. Galvanized metal duct extensions should be used to simplify connections to duct work and grilles. Use
fabric boots to prevent the transmission of vibration through the duct system. The fabric must be U.L. rated
to a minimum of 197°F (92°C).
